Abstract

Abstract Vizitig is the first platform for real-time exploration and querying of DNA and RNA sequence graphs across many samples, unifying visualization, metadata, and flexible search. It integrates raw and reference-based data, handles complex variation, and provides a human-readable query language with scalable graph loading. Vizitig enables fast, reproducible analysis in both pangenomics and pantranscriptomics.
